The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of cats/kittens at the event = 44

Number of cats/kittens at the end of event = 50

Let,

x be the number of cats/kittens adopted

Therefore;

Number of cats/kittens returned = 2x

Number of cats/kittens at the event - adopted + returned = Number at the end of event

44 - x + 2x = 50

The equation 44 - x + 2x = 50 can be used to determine the number of cats/kittens adopted.

Find (if possible) the complement and the supplement of each angle. (if not possible, enter impossible.) (a) π 10 complement rad
blagie [28]

In this question, we have to find the complement and supplement of the given angles .

Complementary angles are those angles whose sum is 90 degree and supplementary angles are those angles whose sum is 180 degree.

So to find the complement and supplement angles, we need to subtract the given angles from pi/2 and pi respectively .

a.

\frac{ \pi}{10}
\\
complement  \ angle = \frac{ \pi}{2} - \frac{ \pi}{10}     \\                             = \frac{4 \pi}{10} = \frac{ 2 \pi}{5}
\\
Supplement  \ angle = \pi - \frac{ \pi}{10} = \frac{9 \pi}{10}

b.

\frac{9 \pi}{10}
\\
Complement \ angle = \frac{ \pi}{2} - \frac{9 \pi}{10} = \frac{-4 \pi}{10} = -\frac{2 \pi}{5}
\\
Supplement \ angle = \pi - \frac{9 \pi}{10} = \frac{ \pi}{10}
